Black history is American history every day of the year. But too often and for too long, our history books have told us an incomplete story about America. February is a time to renew our collective commitment to lifting up the stories of Black movement makers and culture creators that shape our world. Throughout the month, WORLD Channel presents a diverse showcase of over 50 programs including premieres from AfroPoP: The Ultimate Cultural Exchange, Finding Your Roots, Independent Lens, and WORLD exclusive series America ReFramed and Local, USA. WORLD Channel invites you to watch and discuss the films and the issues during Black History Month using the hashtag #WORLDxBHM.
